Job Description

Software Engineer III, Device Connectivity

Flock Safety

• Advance our modern Android-based system stack with a direct focus on cellular connectivity, fleet stability, and the 5G upgrade roadmap. • Engineer low-level AOSP system initialization routines, image partitioning, file system structures, and SELinux access policies. • Optimize cellular stack integrations spanning LTE and 5G modems, Radio Interface Layer components, AT commands, and eSIM configurations. • Analyze device telemetry and network metrics to diagnose complex fleet anomalies across hardware boundaries, RF environments, and user space. • Partner cross-functionally with Hardware, Product, and Infrastructure teams to design power-aware connectivity states for extreme seasonal conditions.

Job Requirements

  • Practical experience in embedded systems or OS-level development, with deep knowledge of low-level Android OS architectures and AOSP internals.
  • Hands-on expertise with cellular networking stacks, including LTE/5G modems, Radio Interface Layer integrations, AT commands, and SIM/eSIM management.
  • Technical understanding of SELinux security policies, permissions management, and debugging system access restrictions.
  • Proficiency in networking protocols including TCP/IP, routing tables, Wi-Fi architectures, and data optimization techniques.
  • A bachelor's, master's, or Ph.D. degree in computer science, computer engineering, electrical engineering, or a related technical field is required.
  • Experience with Qualcomm chipsets, software tools, or cellular telemetry logs is a plus.
